It’s been a little while while since we published one of these weekend round up posts but since I had a few moments to spare and the inclination, I thought now was as good a time as ever. As per my announcement that I’d be cutting back the publishing schedule a little, we’ve only had three posts this week. All are very different and worthy of a look.
Lots of lovely people have volunteered their time to write posts for Give A Brick. If you’re one of those people, How to write a community post should be of interest. In fact, anyone who has a story to share or thoughts to express is always welcome here. It’s part of the mandate I talked about back in February. As well as using this space to share the vision of Give A Brick, I’d love it to become a place where people can share their thoughts in a way that might not fit their own site (if they have one) or for people who don’t currently write anywhere, this could be a brilliant way to start
Having told you that this space can be used to express yourself, why then have I chosen to revive my personal blog? As I told Dr Egg, there are some things in my head that really wouldn’t fit this space. Musings about buttons for example
I’ve had a fun week getting my thoughts out in a space that is mine. I feel like I’ve finally found my online home. If you’re interested in the random ramblings of this Welsh mum of three, you’ll be very welcome over there too. That said, be prepared for a lot less sense that you find here
Our one minute motivator was given a face lift a couple of months ago. Wednesday saw that revised further as I introduced you to our first ever video one minute motivator. I’m hoping to get a few more of these prepared for publication before I head to the ferry in a fortnight’s time. I look forward to hearing what you think
And finally, we had our Friday Friend interview with Give A Brick treasurer Dr Egg. Having done two via IM, it was fun to do this in a video format. However, owing to length restrictions, I’ve had to cut out the quick fire round. And no, I still haven’t uploaded that as a separate video but I promise to get to it later today
Have a wonderful weekend and for those celebrating on Sunday (here in the UK, we did our mums back in March
) Happy Mother’s Day

Hi Eleanor,
Thanks for this round-up since I obviously missed some of your great articles this week. I do enjoy your one minute motivators – such a great series you have. It’s amazing how many there are and you always have great motivating ideas.
I’ll have to check our your personal site. I know that you’ve had a few Twitter usernames happening lately

Thanks for the encouragement Karen
I’m hoping to do a few more of the 1MM very soon. I love the idea of making them a daily dose of smiles for a morning but promising to do anything daily right now is a bit risky
We’ll have to see how it pans out I guess.
As for my place, you’ll be very welcome. It really is brand new though so don’t expect too much
The extra Twitter account was to allow me to tweet my random El nonsense now that Dr Egg is also tweeting on behalf of GAB. Might get very confusing otherwise
